Chapter 64 This Damn Tacit Understanding



"Grandpa said to let his two uncles support you. Give them a call tomorrow."

It takes too long to write a letter, so it would be faster to go out and make a phone call tomorrow.

Gu Qingmeng: ...

She had called both Grandpa and Dad. How come she hadn't realized how shameless men were before?

He even calculated that there would be no school tomorrow, the weekend.

"Are you eager to get engaged? Don't you think things are moving too fast?"

Gu Qing dreamed that in the future, they would be together for several years. How long did it take for them to confirm their relationship? They would get engaged the first time they held hands.

Gu Qingmeng's question stumped Pei Xinghe. How could they be so fast? He was afraid of scaring the girl off, so he didn't even dare to mention marriage. Normally, if they met once and felt they were interested, the next time they met would be to buy wedding supplies. They were both moving at a snail's pace.

"Qingqing, normally people on blind dates have their wedding night by the third meeting. Our relationship isn't progressing that fast."

Not only not fast, but also slow pace.

Gu Qingmeng was shocked. She asked why Aunt Shuqin always looked at her as if she wanted to say something but hesitated recently.

Pei Xiaohua also kept asking Su Xue about her marriage in a roundabout way. It seemed that everyone around them who knew that they were dating was very anxious, but they themselves were not anxious at all.

"Then let's get engaged first! I'll call my uncle and grandpa tomorrow, and Su Xue and Pei Weidong are also getting engaged."

Gu Qingmeng reacted quickly and suggested to her best friend that she also get engaged.

Su Xue and Pei Weidong have been dating for a longer time, and they also want to get engaged, otherwise what if someone gossips about them?

Gu Qingmeng didn't know that Pei Weidong had already taken Su Xue home to propose to her, and the quilt, watch, and bicycle he had prepared for the wedding were already in place.

"Xiaoxue, this is the betrothal gift I prepared for you. Both the sewing machine and the tape recorder require tickets! We have the money, but the tickets are hard to come by. But don't worry, I will definitely make it up to you later!"

Pei Weidong took out a gold bracelet with a simple smile. He had always heard his aunt-in-law talking about a silver bracelet that she had as a dowry, and later gave it to his sister Xiuzhen when she got married. He guessed that women all like these things.

His wife also wanted a bracelet, but she didn't want a silver one, so he got her a big gold one.

"Where did you get the money to buy all this? Did you hide some private money?"

Su Xue snatched the big gold bracelet. She liked gold, but even if she liked it, she still had to scold him.

Men have to pay for watches and bicycles! Even the cheapest large quilt costs more than twenty yuan. If she knew that a man was hiding some private money, don't blame her for being ruthless.

Pei Weidong shuddered. How could this be completely different from what he'd imagined? Wouldn't a normal person be overwhelmed with shyness, hesitant to refuse but also willing to accept? Why wasn't his girlfriend showing any girlish shyness?

Instead, he asked him fiercely where he got the money to buy these things?

"The money...I borrowed it from Brother Xinghe. I didn't...I didn't hide any private money." Pei Weidong swallowed, suppressed his nervousness, and swore that he didn't hide any private money.

"Pei Xinghe's money! Then there's no need to exchange him."

When Su Xue heard that the man did not hide any private money, a smile immediately appeared on her face. She hated it most when men hid their private money because her father always hid money and her mother kept arguing with her, and eventually they divorced.

This left a deep wound in Su Xue's heart. She subconsciously thought that if her father didn't hide his private money, her mother wouldn't quarrel with him all the time, and if they didn't quarrel, they wouldn't divorce, and if they didn't divorce, she wouldn't be an unwanted child.

So, when Su Xue guessed that Pei Weidong had hidden some private money, she was very angry, so angry that she wanted to hit someone.

"How can that be possible? It's over three hundred yuan?"

Even brothers should settle accounts clearly, so how could he not pay back the money he borrowed? In Pei Weidong's mind, 300 yuan was a worker's annual salary. Why would he have to go without food and drink to save it?

"Aren't we getting married? Consider this his wedding gift to us."

Su Xue and Pei Xinghe still don't get along. She thinks he wants to steal her best friend away. If they get married, she will no longer be the most important person to Gu Qingmeng. She likes to do anything that will make Pei Xinghe suffer.

"A... wedding gift, how can you give such an expensive gift?"

The normal gift money in the village is 20 to 50 cents. Pei Weidong didn't even dare to think about something worth more than 300 yuan. What he didn't dare to think about was how Pei Xinghe would deal with him if he found out.

"Oh, don't worry about it, I'll go talk to him." Su Xue said indifferently.

When Gu Qingmeng returned home, she saw her younger brother cooking and Su Xue feeding the puppy. The puppy was over a month old and was very cute. Except for peeing everywhere, everything else was fine.

"Ola, I have something to tell you."

"Mengmeng, you're back! I have something to tell you."

The two said in unison.

"You speak first."

"You speak first."

This damn tacit understanding!

Gu Qingmeng: "Come inside and talk!"

"I'm getting engaged."

"I'm getting married."

Gu Qingmeng:......

Su Xue:......

"When did this happen? Did that bastard Pei Xinghe tell you this afternoon when he came to see you? I was wondering why he had to come to you alone? It seems he was afraid I would sabotage him! What a sinister guy!"

"Ah! Mengmeng Beibei, did he kiss you? This bastard is going to heaven!"

Su Xue kept talking and Gu Qingmeng couldn't get a word in until she talked about kissing, at which point a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

Gu Qingmeng recalled the man’s hot breath and domineering kiss just now!

wrong.

What did Su Xue say just now?

She is getting married.

"You are getting married. When is it? How come I don't know?"

Gu Qingmeng's words made Su Xue quiet down instantly.
